I believe, Just as Jesus affirmed in Jn 5:17, that the "Father is always at work" around us. And when He is ready to use us in that work, He calls us "for it is God who works in you to will and act in order to fulfill his good purpose" (Phil 2:13).
His calls are always interruptions and often push us from our comfort zones. It may not be the work we had in mind and may well be unsettling. We may question His timing, His direction or ultimately, His choice in us. However, since He is Lord, He has the right to call us any time and send us anywhere. Our job, as disciples, is to say yes, work through our crisis of faith and then adjust to our calling.
And when we do answer his call, God can accomplish wonders through us - "immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine according to his power at work within us" (Eph 3:20). Jus' sayn.
